This was delicious. I dont really like peas but this soup was yummy! I did it in the crock pot for 6-7 hrs on high. Did not soak the peas. I used a spiral ham hock! leftover, and it did an amazing job flavoring the soup. I also sauted some garlic with the onion. I also used chicken broth instead of water and cubes. It was really good. Thanks for all the suggestions.

I'm not a ham fan but my bf begged me to make this. I opted for smoked ham hocks instead of turkey ham to surprise him.....totally worth it! I took a reviewers advice and put in my crockpot with a little dry mustard and chicken broth for 6 hours. Next time would rinse the peas beforehand and soak as helps avoid upset stomachs from the beans/peas. Might experiment with the spices next time and add a pinch of cayenne. YUM!

So easy to prepare and very delicious! I used the leftover ham bone from Easter. I followed the recipe as it and it was perfect! After it cooled down the fat rose to the top and I just scooped it out. Will definitely make again if I have another ham bone on hand!

I just made split pea soup for the first time as I had a spiral ham bone from dinner. It was delicious! I added carots and celery and added chicken broth with the water and lots of fresh pepper. So easy and yummy! I will definatly make it again.
